Ach FFS.......I've only just backed Kotkikova with Sporting.

I'm assuming that my bet should be voided, given she was a scratching before I struck it?
 
Delighted for Joe Doyle to have a good horse again...a great man to talk horses with you in his pub in Ballon. He co-owned the good chaser Central House with John Kenny a few years back.

The way the programme book is now, there's not much in the way of eligible races for a winner of one so your hand is kind of forced. Don't think her jumping will be sharp enough over 2m against the geldings but hope she does them proud. She will definitely be winning more races this season.

Forge Meadow does the business for Joe.

Roll on Cheltenham now...has to turn Royal Bond form around with Airlie Beach but she has a fighting chance.
 
This Cap Soleil looks a very decent mare. She'd be shorter than 14/1 for the Mares' Novice in March if she was trained by WPM.

Very nice performance there at Newbury.
 
You're right, too early for me to get involved in a race where heaven knows what Mullins, Elliott and even tricky Nicky will release but having hesitated she's a general 8/1 shot now.
 
Benie des dieux would be interesting.

so she was.

few quotes from willie

[FONT=&quot]"After she'd won her first race for us, we did a couple of pieces of work and I texted Rich to say she was like 'Benie Des Douvan' - that was the vibe she was giving us. I tried to keep that under wraps, though![/FONT][FONT=&quot]"When she won last time I told David (Mullins) to not leave Cheltenham behind, win if you can but don't give her a hard race, and that's what he did.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"Ruby was brilliant on her but she only just got home. She really needs a trip and will go way back up in trip and back over fences now.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"She really could be anything, I think a lot of her.[/FONT]
